Welp, Alex is back.
She was out looking for information about Anne and Lisa and she found nothing, just that Anne disappeared without a trace while at a dressage competition in France, and Lisa disappeared while out riding Starshine. I'm sure they're fine.
It's time for the Druid Council meeting. I had to go ask Elizabeth how to get into the stone circle
Sidenote I love this portal. It feels so easter eggy to have a place in the game where if you spiral in just the right away a portal opens. That's so fun!
Best picture I can get of the meeting, since I get forced into a cut scene if I move any closer. Oh well, it gives us a look at the foreshadowy glowy picture on the ground at least.
Also fun fact I got an achievement taking this picture.
So basically the meeting was Elizabeth explaining that I have all four magic powers and then the druids accepting me into the group but also wishing I had time for more training. Then Fripp explained that Garnok is stirring again, and there are lots of people involved with this and we need to be on the lookout. Also we need to find at least one other Soul Rider so we can perform the Ceremony of Light or whatever. I can maybe replace one(they say very casually like we're not ignoring a person who's supposed to be their friend???) but that still leaves us only three out of four soul riders.
And then I was allowed to ask a bunch of questions and I'm not gonna summarize all of them and all their answers, I'm too lazy.
Long story short is the druids have a magic book that they need soul riders to use it to defeat Garnok. Temporarily. He's never defeated for good, just shut up for a while.
And then Elizabeth tells me to be on the look out and she'll let me know when there's more news.
